Hello Christian,

this generally looks good, I have got two questions:
* Enabling LTO: Does this bring huge benefit for libsepol, or why do you
  enable this? Generally *imho* we should not use non-default
  optimization options without some kind of rationale/benchmarking.
* "add myself to uploaders": Was this coordinated with the libsepol
  maintainers?

Thanks, cu Andreas
